Katsuhiro Otomo has launched a new animation studio called Oval Gear and it has already garnered significant attention from the anime community. The move comes as news of his long-delayed film Orbital Era continues to circulate. Initially announced in 2015, 'Orbital Era' was first conceived by Otomo but had been on hold for years due to various production challenges.
With the establishment of Oval Gear, there is renewed optimism that the project may finally see fruition. The studio's formation suggests a fresh approach and potential new resources dedicated to bringing Otomo's visionary concept to life.
